Arguments

const char * asset_path - Path to a non-native asset.
int index - Index of the generated runtime file.
int primary - 1 to make the runtime file primary; 0 to unmake, if it is already set.

Return value

1 if the runtime file is successfully set as a primary one; otherwise, 0.

NoticeThere can be the only one primary runtime file, so when a new runtime file is set as the primary, the previous one is unset.

int setRuntimePrimary ( const char * runtime_path, int primary ) #

Sets or unsets the generated runtime file with a given path as a primary one.

Arguments

const char * runtime_path - Path to the generated runtime file.
int primary - 1 to make the runtime file primary; 0 to unmake, if it is already set.

Return value

1 if the runtime file is successfully set as a primary one; otherwise, 0.

NoticeThere can be the only one primary runtime file, so when a new runtime file is set as the primary, the previous one is unset.

int setRuntimePrimary ( const UGUID & runtime_guid, int primary ) #

Sets or unsets the generated runtime file with a given GUID as a primary one.

Arguments

const UGUID & runtime_guid - GUID of the generated runtime file.
int primary - 1 to make the runtime file primary; 0 to unmake, if it is already set.

Return value

1 if the runtime file is successfully set as a primary one; otherwise, 0.

NoticeThere can be the only one primary runtime file, so when a new runtime file is set as the primary, the previous one is unset.

int setRuntimePrimary ( const UGUID & asset_guid, int index, int primary ) #

Sets or unsets the generated runtime file, specified by the given non-native asset GUID and runtime index, as a primary one.

Arguments

const UGUID & asset_guid - GUID of a non-native asset.
int index - Index of the generated runtime file.
int primary - 1 to make the runtime file primary; 0 to unmake, if it is already set.
